8.4 좋습니다. - jmin 02-02-2025

Review: 전반적인 시설이 뛰어나다고 볼 순 없지만, 동대문 입지 자체가 여러모로 좋습니다. 내국인에게도 흥인지문이 보이는 뷰는 낯설고 경이롭습니다. 멋진 빌딩들 사이에 있는 숙소보다 훨씬 더 좋은 경험이 됩니다.

10.0 Amazing - Helen 02-10-2024

Review: Impeccable, friendly service offered by staff. Perfect location for shopping, dining out and walking Cheungaekjung. The breakfast buffet includes full American breakfast as well as full Korean options. You will be full. The cocktail hour can stand in for a light dinner. Went to Seoul with two sisters and a brother and all of us agreed that we’d love to return to stay here. Well done JW Marriott at Dongdaemun!

9.6 Exceptional - Yi 21-04-2024

Review: Our stay here at JW Marriott Dongdaemun Square Seoul was very pleasant. The staff are very welcoming and attentive. We were told during check in that my baby girl will definitely enjoy the kids pool however, due to her feeling under the weather, we were not able to check out their pool. Location wise, it is great for those who loves to shop as it is located exactly in the shopping district. Highly recommended.

10.0 Wonderful hotel great staff and good restaurants - Julie 17-11-2024

Negative points: Wish it had been closer to Myeong-dong although the property was right next to the subway and only a couple of stops would have liked to be able to walk
